Because its not Space-X. Just a regular ULA Atlas-V launch. No one cares about Orbital's launches since they stopped doing their own after their second-hand soviet rocket engine exploded.
I'm more hyped for this mission's deorbit than its routine launch. They're going to light the inside of the capsule on fire after it leaves the ISS.
If the smallest length that makes physical sense is the Planck Length, and a string is one Planck Length, doesn't that mean the diameter of a closed string is 1/pi Planck Lengths, and thus we can't distinguish between two closed strings within the same Planck area?
It means that's a good album desu

>If the smallest length that makes physical sense is the Planck Length

I don't think string theory discretizes space.
>>7950614
from wiki:
>In string theory, the Planck length is the order of magnitude of the oscillating strings that form elementary particles
What would be the dumbest way for a future civilization (let it be a whole planet in some distant galaxy) to die trying to go against the laws of physics and common sense.

CompSci BSC curriculum at a european university
maths courses: (in no particular order)
>course dedicated to revising highschool algebra
>linear algebra (vectors, bases, matrices,determinants,eigenvalues, eigenvectors, gaussian elimination, etc)
>discrete mathematics 1-2 (mostly group theory, graphs, polinomials, basic crypto)
>Analysis 1-3 (limits, differentiation, infinite series, integration, vector calc)
>probability...

>is this less pleb than the stereotypical comp. sci. degree?
Yes. But that doesn't say much, because the stereotypical CS degree is a complete joke, that may not actually exist anywhere on the planet.
>>7949906
As someone who studied CS in Europe, I can tell you this is NOT the typical CS curriculum.

How so? It looks quite standard. A bit light perhaps, but nothing out of the ordinary.
How do I learn all Higschool math (including calc 1) as fast as possible? maybe even calc2 or calc 3 is there any book ou there that has like a crash course format? also what other subjects besides calc 2 and 3 are important in college?
>>7949753
If you're doing it for the first time, doing a crash course is dumb imo. Find a course or buy some textbooks from schools, universities, etc.
Don't fall for any sci textbook memes.
>>7949753
how fast do you need to learn it
That would be an interesting guide if they took it a little more serious.
At long last we have finally got a closer-up image of the infamous bright spots.

Looks like a big ice comet went splat. Either that or they shopped out the alien base.
The full sized photo is fucking magnificent.
Hey /sci/, I have a weird thing going on. From time to time I lose vision for a split second, as if someone had flickered the lights on and off. I'm sure it's not me blinking without realizing it.
Any idea what it could be?
Your brain tumor is affecting your optic nerves.
Brain tumor, I'd get an MRI pretty soon if I were you.
>>7949467
My cousin had a brain tumor and the same thing would happen to him. Definitely get an MRI and avoid any heavy lifting until then.

What do you want? For someone to tell you the "secret"?
There is no secret. It's hard work. It requires effort.
All you niggers laughed at me when I said flying cars and hoverboards were happening soon well I've been following the lithium-polymer market and the power density has been steadily increasing by 3% every 6 months. And whenever they release a new range the previous range halves in price. You'll cowards are too pussy to be on the frontiers of technology like me. Kill yourselves.

1/10? Everything I said came through. /sci/ said battery tech would never improve, it improves every 6 months. Price has been dropping like crazy as well.
>>7949082
Let me know when we have battery powered passenger aircraft.
Is the empty graph a pointless concept?
Have you taken a course in graph theory? It comes up in proofs where you need to do induction on the number of edges, for instance. By empty graph, I'm assume you mean: any number of vertices, and no edges.
>>7948407
It's meant by the graph on zero vertices, which is occasionally an annoyance as a base case.
Is zero a pointless concept?
Why is the universe so fine tuned for life?
If the variables and physical laws of our universe had been even slightly different we wouldn't have gotten planets and stars and sharks and chicken soup.

So what's the actual point of topology?
>>7948175
to study mathematical physics to study portals
>>7948180
I prefer unmathematical physics actually. Sure it may never give us a means to make portals but at least we can discuss the philosophy of them.
>>7948175
to be pointless
